Compress images via the terminal on MacOS
Juri Strumpflohner
A quick and easy way is to use sips
:
sips -Z 640 example.png
This resizes the image and is therefore less useful.
Do do proper compression in various formats, e.g. avif
, ImageMagick is nice.
Install the required tools
brew install libheif
brew install imagemagick
Run the conversion
